Anything “in the cloud” is stored on servers that require massive amounts of energy to operate—and Amazon.com's Amazon Web Services (AWS) servers are some of the largest and dirtiest in the industry.

While other major technology firms have established data centers powered by 100% renewable energy, like wind and solar, Amazon continues to power its servers with 50% fossil fuels. The burning of these fossil fuels increases the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to climate change.

What’s more, unlike many Fortune 500 companies, Amazon has refused to disclose any information about its energy use and climate impacts to the Carbon Disclosure Project. The company also refuses to produce an annual sustainability report. Amazon is hiding its impacts on the planet from its customers and shareholders.

In addition, Amazon has been shopping its web services to the fossil fuel industry to help oil and gas companies increase their drilling worldwide. Amazon is using its state-of-the art technology to accelerate the drilling and burning of fossil fuels – helping to accelerate climate change.

Finally, Amazon’s poor conduct extends to its workers as well as the planet.Workers in Amazon warehouses report grueling conditions, especially during seasonal sales.And, the overseas workers making Amazon’s electronics fare even worse.A report from China Labor Watch in 2018 details overtime hours exceeding the legal limits, poor safety conditions, and other labor abuses in a Chinese factory that produces Amazon Eco Dots, Kindles, and tablets.

No one should have to choose between using the Internet or protecting people and the planet. Consumer pressure on Amazon works and got the company to use 50% clean energy for its servers, and to make a recent announcement of three more clean energy projects worldwide. But, Amazon is still a laggard in the tech sector and only continued pressure will keep the company moving in the right direction and end its involvement in fossil fuel exploration. Join us in calling on Amazon to build a cleaner and fairer cloud and company—one that is powered by renewable energy and treats all workers fairly.
